MDAÂS ÂAisles of SmilesÂ Program Encourages Albertson’s Customers To Shop For A Great Cause

STATEWIDE, FL (PRWEB) July 31, 2004

The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA), in conjunction with AlbertsonÂs grocers, presents an exciting program aptly named ÂAisles of SmilesÂ. Beginning July 31 and running through September 6th, the program will encourage manufacturers and shoppers alike to lend a helping hand to those affected by over 40 neuromuscular diseases.

ÂAisles of SmilesÂ is a food industry program that spans the United States. During its 17-year existence, the campaign has raised millions of dollars to fight muscular dystrophy. MDA and AlbertsonÂs will continue this success in Florida grocery stores. The ÂAisles of SmilesÂ program designates selected brand name products by placing an ÂAisles of SmilesÂ logo next to each item. MDA received a percentage of each itemÂs sales as a donation.

In AlbertsonÂs stores, customers will quickly recognize the bright yellow ÂAisles of SmilesÂ logos, and can enjoy reduced prices on the items participating in the program;. AlbertsonÂs will also be stocked with ÂAisles of SmilesÂ mobiles. These cards will decorate stores and bear the names of customers who choose to donate extra money towards the cause. Proceeds from the program will benefit local individuals and families that are affected by muscular dystrophy. Collected funds will support programs and services, as well as sending local children to summer camp.

20 manufacturers will participate in this yearÂs program. These manufacturers will feature their brand in 124 AlbertsonÂs stores across Florida and Georgia. Featured brands include, but are not limited to: Bagel Bites, KelloggÂs Eggo Waffles, CampbellÂs Soup, NestleÂs Carnation Instant Breakfast, and Pedigree Dog Food.

MDA is a voluntary health agency to defeat more than 43 neuromuscular diseases through programs of worldwide research, comprehensive services, and education. This event is one of the several year-round fundraising efforts conducted by MDA, culminating with the Jerry Lewis Telethon, that will take place Labor Day weekend.
